The primary test machine was powered by an AMD Athlon 64 3400+ processor running at 2.2 ghz and backed with 1 gigabyte of ram with Windows XP Professional. I tested the Gimp on two very different machines to get an idea of it's capabilities as well as its ability to operate on widely varying machines. Testing Hardware and Program Requirements This is not a time limited demo but truly free software something that is sure to shock and amaze even the most jaded of users when they see the list of features available in The Gimp.

As a result this impressive, powerful image editor is absolutely free and now has a version available that will run on Microsoft Windows. Originally designed for use on Linux/Unix systems, the Gimp is user supported software, meaning that many of the people using the Gimp software also contribute to writing the software.
